Designed by Customers, Engineered by Instron

How often do you find that your testing equipment is not quite what you need or expected? Learning what is critical for our customers allows us to develop technology that is intuitive and eliminates unnecessary steps and complicated set up procedures. Every interaction that our global sales and service teams have with customers allows us to gain valuable insight into customer problems, providing the input for us to engineer customized solutions that address these important customer concerns.

One Device, Endless Applications

Do you wish you had one device for use at ambient, high/low temperatures, or for use with specimens and components submersed in a bath? Do you need a device that can meet the needs of your lab over the next five years? The versatility of the new AVE 2 allows for testing under multiple environmental conditions, and can be used for advanced strain measurement with Digital Image Correlation (DIC). Additionally, the AVE 2 conforms to the most rigorous testing standards, such as ISO 527 and ASTM D638.

Controlled air flow and lighting stabilizes changes in the air properties between video and specimen ensuring accurate and repeatable results

* Performance depends on system; analog output has 18 bit resolution
** Instron holds US and European patents for the control of air currents between the camera and specimen that eliminates noise caused by refraction of light; and for the low-voltage LED illumination system that ensures optimum lighting under all lighting conditions.
